With the addition of the Apogee Mic and others it could be a good little recorder maybe?</p> <p>But I wonder, does any one know the maximum sample rate / bit depth of the iPhone?</p> <p>I personally have the iPhone 4 with iOS 5.</p> <p>Thanks!

Stavrosound 2012-08-30T05:55:59Z 2012-08-30T05:55:59Z <p>I'm 99.9% sure it's 48kHz, 16-bit Mono (or Stereo if you have a plug-in mic of some sort which supports Stereo). I use the FiRe app which is one of the most comprehensive and professional-geared recording apps, and that's the max it supports. On older iPhones like the 3G I believe it was only 44.1kHz.</p>
